A 2,900-word short story.

So I'm planning to rewrite this story as I am unhappy with the way it turned out. The ending was rushed, it barely fits the description of a murder mystery, and it's been poorly written with little to no explanation on some details. I will rewrite it once it has been planned out. To those who have read it, thank you for the support, it has really encouraged me to continue writing. I am only young, but the kind words you have said has given me the motivation to continue what I love doing. I will get the new story out as soon as I can. I promise
